And every piece of software that works with / supports IPv4.

When you've convinced Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and a few other router vendors to implement, and have submitted patches for the Linux kernel and userspace to implement IPv4+ (good luck with all that...and expect to be met with "Can we have some of what you've been smoking?"), then you can start pushing your next gen IP concepts. Until then, it's a total non-starter.

If this person can't be removed from the list for wasting everyone's time, I suggest filing him right under Jim Flemming.

I'm out of this thread...I've already seen the above rule do its job.
